Still no change. It looks like from the log file that it can't find the correct modeline to use. I looked at dmesg and it shows the modes that were supported and unsupported. I posted that below as well. Would adding the modeline to the xorg.conf file help?

Well adding the modeline to the xorg.conf file did the trick. Below is what I finally went with:

Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "default layout"
Screen "screen0"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
Identifier "monitor0"
VendorName "VISIO"
ModeLine "1360x768" 85.506 1360 1424 1536 1792 768 771 777 795 +hsync +vsync
Option "DPMS"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
Identifier "screen0"
Monitor "monitor0"
SubSection "Display"
Modes "1360x768"
EndSubSection
EndSection


Thanks again for all your help. Hope maybe this helps someone else.

Well I thought everything was good, but now I'm getting a Kernel Panic after updating the boot.scr file and rebooting. Below is the error:

No filesystem could mount root, tried: squashfs
Kernel Panic - not syncing: VFS: unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(8,2)

Any ideas? It worked for a day or two. I haven't even installed the updates or added my xorg.conf file back. just did a clean install, installed the kernel you listed, then ran "mkimage -A arm -T script -C none -n "EfikaMX boot script" -d boot.scr.gda boot.scr" and rebooted.

Well ya fix one thing and break another! :( Good thing you finally got the right resolution, but I'm sorry to hear your borked your installation.
I hope you still have an SD card with the installer image on, as steev suggested.

I have no experience with this that you mention, so what I would suggest is that you go back to the original kernel and try with your working xorg.conf there. Maybe the newer kernel isn't needed when you add the modeline to xorg.conf?

Well after I did a clean install again, I thought I might try just using the xorg.conf file that I posted out here with the default kernel, and it worked perfectly. I've got all the latest patches installed again and everything is working great. I can't wait until they get hardware acceleration working. Thanks again for all your help. I did learn a few new things through this experience.
